This project aims to make Wikipedia accessible for users with disabilities. More specifically, accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with Wikipedia, and that they can contribute to Wikipedia. Accessibility also benefits others, including older people with changing abilities due to aging.

The primary focus is on improving the accessibility of articles. The secondary focus is on actively assisting editors who possess disabilities or other characteristics which inhibit their ability to contribute to the encyclopedia.

The approach to make Wikipedia accessible is based on W3C's officials WCAG 2.0 and ATAG 2.0 guidelines. The guidelines provided by this accessible project are merely an attempt to reword the WCAG 2.0 into a guideline hopefully easier to understand for editors that are not familiar with accessibility nor web development.

This page has been identified as accessible by WikiProject Accessibility. For more information on the criteria and how you can help the project make Wikipedia accessible to all, please visit the project page.
